Answer:
(a) 11.8692 ohm
(b) 12.447 A
(c) 17.6 A
Explanation:
a) inductive reactance Z = L Ω
= L x 2π x F
= 45.0 x 10⁻³ x 2(3.14) x 42
= 11.8692 ohm
b) rms current
= 100 / 8.034
= 12.447 A
c) maximum current in the circuit
= I eff x rac2
= 12.447 x 1.414
= 17.6 A
Answer:
<em>D. The total force on the particle with charge q is perpendicular to the bottom of the triangle.</em>
Explanation:
The image is shown below.
The force on the particle with charge q due to each charge Q = 
we designate this force as N
Since the charges form an equilateral triangle, then, the forces due to each particle with charge Q on the particle with charge q act at an angle of 60° below the horizontal x-axis.
Resolving the forces on the particle, we have
for the x-component
= N cosine 60° + (-N cosine 60°) = 0
for the y-component
= -f sine 60° + (-f sine 60) = -2N sine 60° = -2N(0.866) = -1.732N
The above indicates that there is no resultant force in the x-axis, since it is equal to zero (
= 0).
The total force is seen to act only in the y-axis, since it only has a y-component equivalent to 1.732 times the force due to each of the Q particles on q.
<em>The total force on the particle with charge q is therefore perpendicular to the bottom of the triangle.</em>
